Is there any way would could get a PDF of sorts as an official ARFCOM target? Something that is the standard for us to shoot at and has a BFL on it so when when we use them at the range we might meet a fellow arfcomer. Offer them with and without BFL so you can play low key if you don't want basement dwellers bothering you at the range.

Tomorrow I shoot round 2... will probably submit another 6 group target though since it will also be going on 'the other site'!

That's kind of what I was thing. I did the two diamonds to give plenty of aiming references and very exact points of aim and be easy on printer ink. A BFL would do the same. |

Didn't have the new targets to shoot, so I shot the old style... next time though it will be all BFL!!!
Shot with my Centurion Mk12 Mod1 with Nightforce 2.5-10x24mm again... 
Shooting didn't go as well as I thought, I was a little rushed due to the setting sun but look forward to trying it again soon. Targets (best 5 of the 6) 1.042" .981" 1.096" .834" 1.238" For an average of 1.038" (just squeezed it in!) 
The sun was setting fast and that small 24mm objective was really limiting the dusk shooting so I need to go out again soon to finish this up (hoping for .75" average all said and done!) Thanks again for the fun little 'competition', even if only 3 of us are playing... |

The key is a good illuminator paired with a IR laser, it really helps you dial in the dot without washing out the target. Also a larger target (4" at 50 yards) doesn't hurt! I'll take some video one of these times to post, it's pretty cool! |

We did this last year in ARF SPESHUL GROUP we all averaged over 12 MOA or around 3 -3 .5 inches at 25 yards Some of us had some good groups but we all had some real dogs that opened it up.]

Cool thread guys!
I decided to go out and give it a shot today. I went old school with the first gun I ever owned (mostly because it's a .22 and I try not to rile up the neighbors too much when shooting near our house). Division: 22lr magnified @ 50 yards (measured with tape) Rifle:Ruger M77/22 with Tasco Silver Antler 3-9X with knock-off Harris bi-pod. Ammo: Winchester 550-round value pack 36 grain HP Position: Prone, using Tac-Snug sleeved sniper-blanket and Hot-Seat tactical hunting cushion for stock/elbow rest. 
Results: 
Group sizes: .784" .842" .595" - Best .768" .965" Final average: .7908" or 1.51 MOA Close, but no cigar! I think I might be able to best this using higher quality ammo. Next time I go to the real range, I think I'll have to break out big brother with .308 handloads and get it done right.

Here's mine. Rifle is a Rem 700 Police in .308. Scope is a Bushnell Elite 4200 6-32x40. Ammo was handloads, 175gr SMK BTHP on top of 41.0 grains of H4895, Lapua brass. First time shooting this load in this rifle. Groups were shot from prone with a bipod at 100 yards. http://i241.photobucket.com/albums/ff35/kemays/rifle-1_zps43973325.jpg http://i241.photobucket.com/albums/ff35/kemays/target-1_zps18f17782.jpg http://i241.photobucket.com/albums/ff35/kemays/target-2_zps6514bea5.jpg Group sizes were written on target after subtracting .308 1.314 1.292 1.437 1.127 0.792 Average: 1.19", 1.19 MOA I haven't touched this rifle, except to move it around in the safe, for the past 5 years. I called just about every shot on the paper. I have no doubt that if this gun were in a vise, it would punch group after group with all rounds touching. This was the second target I shot. The first was a sighting target to make sure my scope was dialed in. Nice setup, looks like mine, using an older 24" bbl with Burris 6x18 peep plex. |

I tried today with a Remington 700 in .223 topped with a Leopold MK4. It's my first "precision" rifle so I wasn't excepting much. I used my handloads(just got into that thanks to DoubleAron). My groups averaged maybe 1.75 in(this shooting shit is hard

I got a chance to head to the range today. This time, I had the appropriate target. 
My rifle currently has two pieces of foam somewhat duck taped to it. But, it shoots like a house on fire. The groups measure: 0.892 0.785 0.688 0.656 0.372 That's an average of 0.6786. The rifle is a .308 National Match Winchester Model 70. I was using 168 grain reloads. The optic is a first focal plane Bushnell 6-24x. I shot the rifle fast enough that heavy mirage was coming off the barrel. I could use a mirage band. The middle group was to help fine tune the zero. |

I will hopefully be able to attempt my go with it soon. Trying to get over a infected abscessed tooth, and then got to have it pulled. I did get my scope mounted up and fired a few rounds to dial it in. Cheek wield was a major problem with my face swelled up though. lol Swelling is pretty much gone now. I found about 30 rounds of my better ammo, with the same #41 primers and same powder charge. Gonna try and find enough for the test. It will be fun for sure.
Lot's of good shooting here so far. |
